    "The Archbishop's Palace in the immediate vicinity of Prague Castle has been the seat of Prague's bishops and archbishops since the 1560s. The palace was built on the site of 8 townhouses and was rebuilt several times in later times. It acquired its current form in the second half of the 18th century, when it underwent a significant late Baroque reconstruction, it received side wings, a 3rd floor and Rococo decoration of the facade. The heart of the palace is the Chapel of St. John the Baptist (Kaple sv. Jana Křtitele) from the 16th century with wall paintings and stucco. In the representation halls there is a unique collection of Parisian tapestries."

        The Hradcany district includes the complex of buildings of Prague Castle. The castle palace, churches, monasteries and palaces impressively reflect more than a thousand years of history of the Czech state. In the 14th century Emperor Charles IV made Prague Castle the center of the Holy Roman Empire and St Vitus Cathedral the cathedral of the Archdiocese of Prague. The President of the Czech Republic has resided here since 1918 and the President of the Czech Republic since 1993.
